When I was selected to "Dare to Try" Your Best Face Define & Quench Duo ($70 and $15 in the shop), I was ecstatic. The YBF Define was on my wish list, but pretty far down, because it was a product that I wasn’t sure I needed at age 57. WOW, that offer to try it and provide a review was the gift for the rest of my life! Without a doubt, I will buy it again and again, as I can't live without it. My lips definitely have more pigment and are softer and fuller.

I expected the product to reduce the fine lines and add the look of fullness to my lips. The visible results after my first week’s application was less fine lines around the lips and less depth in the vertical lines on my lips. I only needed to use a thin layer, as YBF Define’s formula lasts longer than the average moisturizer for lips or even skin. I used the product morning and evening as part of my skin care regimen. Only once in the morning, taking a few minutes for the sticky feeling to dry, then I was able to easily use lipstick without needing to touch up all day. Within one week, I woke up with fuller, lush, pigmented lips...to the point that my husband asked me if I had anything done to my lips! Great observation on his part, as my upper lip has always been thinner than my lower lip, and YBF Define has fixed that problem and more. I would say that I now have a set of beautiful youthful, sensual lips. It’s a little product with awesome results!

Having read many of the reviews, I expected to be put off by the taste or feel of YBF Define. I had no reaction to it at all. I only used YBF Quench at night, over the Define, which had a slight mint taste, but the moisturizing effect was worth the few minutes of the minor taste of the product.

My final verdict: I adore YBF Define! I didn’t have a good lip care regimen as I do for my face, neck and body, so this is now my must-have. Don't be deterred by the price because a little goes a long way, even if you use it morning and night.

Also, what you had to share about the mint in Quench is good feedback for us as we've been pondering the addition of Quench using vanilla, just like the new Define.

Like yourself when you went reading past reviews of Define, it could understandably be hard to decide if the new Define is right when reading reviews of the former formula, so I am including some notes here about the new Define which rolled out earlier this year, along with the ingredient list for reference.

Thank you Karen!

The new Define is indeed smoother, silkier and applies to the lip area better than before and has a new aroma profile of primarily vanilla absolute and subtle notes of nutmeg, fir balsam absolute and spearmint. Most exciting though are the changes to active ingredients and in particular, heavy-handed use of these peptides:

(new to the formula)
Matrixyl Synthe-6
Syn-Hycan
TegoPep 4-Even
(continuing to use in the formula)
Syn-Tacks
Hilurip
